Pure tavorite LiFePO 4 (OH) was synthesized through a hydrothermal route. A fine structural analysis was done by X-ray and neutron diffraction techniques. The structure consists of a three-dimensional network with iron( iii ) octahedra (FeO 6 ) sharing corners, forming chains that run along the b di...
